Re: headers Problem (H23preludeSi)
at least they're better than nothing. the h23 header definately doesn't work. for one the bolt pattern is off and secondly, if you were to use the h22 top section, the h23 lower section doesn't match up because the bolt pattern is off and it's about 2 inches too low.

Re: headers Problem (PreIudeSI)
tighten up the bolts. Most aftermarket headers don't have a gasket betweeen the upper and lower sections. My neuspeed one doesn't.
Maybe its just bad quality/fit.

Re: headers Problem (H23preludeSi)
I heard that i can go to a store and buy like some gasket paper, and i can cut whatever shape i want out of it. and i heard it works pretty good what do you think? i am going to try to tight the bolts with an AIR Gun Tomorrow, and if that fails i will go with the Gasket Material Paper, and one more think do u think if i go to the Honda dealrship that the stock gaskets work on my headers?
